Metal Coating Tutorial: Blue Green Patina Over Copper B Metal Coating

[@charlotteinscho9871]

That was awesome Mitch! I always enjoy your videos and how well you explain the process. Especially like that you point out things you weren't 100% happy with on the application but your finished product still looks great! 👍👍

Nice way to upscale and reuse.

Looks really good, but do you find if you spray the primer and metal coating that the surface looks more like sheet copper which would be more smooth?

[@brickintheyard]

Spray application definitely gets a much smoother finish. The only downside to spraying is you have to move much faster with the patina application so the Metal Coating doesn’t dry first.

Will this work on a non-metal surface as well ? I work with mixed media & paper mache & am intrigued by these finishes !

[@brickintheyard]

Yes. Any surface that will take paint. Allways do a small test just to make sure, but pretty much any dry, clean, plastic, wood, or metal surface works.

Wish you had showed a better quality close up of what you looked like. The video quality was a bit dark. Maybe taken it outside would of not harmed the electronics you mentioned.

I'll be posting more soon. You can also see pictures on our instagram page.

volume a bit low

Funny you should say that. I actually lowered it as it sounded too loud when I first reviewed it.
